2. Description of the Related Art
Electrical connectors are used in a variety of applications. One type of connector is commonly known as a board-to-board connector for interconnecting two circuit boards. A board-to-board connector typically includes interengageable male and female connectors. U.S. Pat. No. 5,915,976 discloses such a plug connector comprising an insulative housing, a plurality of contacts received in the insulative housing, and a pair of grounding plates positioned on two sides of the housing of the plug connector wherein a plurality of grounding pins of each grounding plates are selectively connected to some of the contacts of the plug connector, and a corresponding number of engagement arms are positioned opposite to such grounding pins, respectively. In such a way, the housing of the plug connector includes a number of pairs of protrusions positioned on an exterior surface of each side wall for mating with corresponding retention arms of the grounding plates. The structure of the housing will occupy too much space on a printed circuit board (PCB). Furthermore, assembling of the engagement arms of the grounding plates is inconvenient.
Hence, an improved electrical connector is required to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring to FIG. 1, an electrical connector 1 comprises an insulative housing 10, a plurality of contacts 20, a shell 30, a cover 40, and a pair of soldering pads 50.
The insulative housing 10 is elongate and comprises a mating face 11 and opposite side walls 12 extending downwardly from the mating face 11. The mating face 11 defines a slot 13 at a middle portion thereof. Each side wall 12 defines a ramp 152 at an upper portion of an inner surface 15 thereof for guiding a complementary connector (not shown) inserting into the slot 13. A top end 150 of the side wall 12 defines a recess 151 at a middle portion thereof. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 8, each side wall defines a plurality of elongate cavities 17 at an outer surface. A plurality of positioning passageways 170 corresponding to the contact 20 is arranged in the cavities 17. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, connecting areas (not labeled) between the side walls 12 and lateral walls (not labeled) of the insulative housing 10 define four slits 14. An opening 16 is defined at each lateral wall and is positioned between every two slits 14 for receiving the soldering 50.
The contacts 20 are securely retained in the insulative housing 10 by insert-molding. Each contact 20 comprises an engaging portion 21 received in an inner surface 15 of the side wall 12, and a soldering portion 22 mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB).
The shell 30 is assembled to outer surfaces of the side walls 12. The shell 30 is divided into two parts. The two parts are symmetrical. Each pan comprises a body portion 301, a bending portion 33 at a middle portion of a top end 34, a pair of securing portions 32 at two lateral walls, and a plurality of tail portions 31 for being soldered to the PCB.
Refer to FIGS. 1 and 3. The cover 40 is made from dielectric material and comprises an adhesive surface 41 adhering to the mating surface 11 for preventing the shell 30 from moving upwardly, and an upper surface 42, and an edge portion 43. After mounting the connector 1 on the PCB, the cover 40 can be torn off from the insulative housing 40 via the edge portion 43.
Referring to FIGS. 3 to 8, in assembly, the contacts 20 are first retained in the insulative housing 20 by insert-molding. The shell 30 is assembled to the outer surfaces of the side walls 12 of the insulative housing 10. The bending portion 33 and the securing portion 32 respectively mating with the recesses 151 and the slits 14. The soldering pads 50 are installed in the opening 16 of the insulative housing 10 along an up-to-down direction. The adherent surface 41 of the cover 40 is adhered to the mating surface 11 of the insulative housing 10.
The cover 40 of the present invention can provide a function of fixing position to the shell 30. When the shell moves upwardly, the cover 40 can obstruct a movement of the shell 30. Therefore, the structure of the side walls 12 of the insulative housing 10 can be simplified. At the same time, the occupied space of the PCB also can be reduced.
It is to be understood, however, that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
